100 Books That Altered Todd's Brain Chemistry (Joining the Crowd)

I've seen a lot of lists with this idea, so I thought I'd give it a try. There are lots of reasons that these books altered the way I think. Some about history, so about the present day, many about the beauty of English, and some because they got me excited about reading books in Spanish. Anyway, they all made a big difference and are still in my mind all of the time. Happy reading!
